Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The two vices which result in good men becoming bad people are undeniably great wealth and great power. The very reason the United States exists is because one man, with ultimate power and wealth beyond imagination, made a final decision which was unacceptable to men of great morals, great principles, and a dream. King George III declared that the Anglican Church was the one, true religion of the British Empire. The number of American Presidents is now 47. However, the number of American Presidents who performed their duties as described in the Constitution, and as expected by the American people, can be counted on just seven fingers. In my humble but carefully constructed opinion, they are George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and John Fitzgerald Kennedy. I rate these men based on their loyalty to their country, respect for all Americans, devotion to the meaning of the Constitution, and ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Those of you who read me on occasion or frequently, are aware that I have solid reasons to allege the 2016 and 2024 elections were “rigged” by an arrangement between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump.

Our nation’s people are the least informed in the world and frequently choose to believe lies and reject facts. I believe that the primary reason Democrats fail to win every election ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart   It is virtually a fact that the primaries in 2024 are worthless. President Biden said he is running because Trump will be the Republican nominee. The only reason Trump is running is to avoid spending the remainder of his worthless life in prison.   The primaries have proven one thing, most Americans are not happy with the choices offered them in 2024, and I cannot criticize them for their displeasure.   However, the differences between the two old, white men are significant and obvious.   President Biden loves his country and his accomplishments for all Americans are impressive to say the least. He continues his attempts to unify our country and move our n ation forward into the 21 st cent ury. Our economy is growing faster than at any time since 2000. The facts prove that his successes greatly outnumber not only his immediate predecessor, but those of all three comb ined. He has been a working, patriotic, and American president. ...
